Antonino Cerda, who moved to Genoa as a child, after graduating from high school as an artist in 1973, he was appointed as a teacher of plastic arts at the Liceo Barabino in Genoa in 1977. He continued his artistic research in the studio of the Genoese sculptor Michelangelo Barbieri Viale and at the same time took part in sculpture exhibitions and competitions in Italy and abroad. Torsione cubica alludes to the possible torsion, like a graphic sign, of a hard and immovable material such as marble. Form isolated from context, says Cerda, in its mute perfection becomes expressive language. In this phase of research, I do not remove matter from the block, I do the opposite, I build from the void tensions and contractions, suggestions that, freely but strictly guided, become sculpture.
